I mean, MAL can be amusing for other reasons, but this aspect can be especially choice.
I've been using MAL for over a decade, but very rarely do I venture into the forums. Seems like I may be missing out on something for Bookworm then.
But as for not knowing what's coming, even if you genuinely don't know, surely the sheer size of the Bookworm LN will inform your opinions. Or is that meta-information still in effect a spoiler? I mean, when people talk about Myne's plot armour they have a point, but then they get reminded that her family doesn't have it.
PS sent you a friend request just so you can laugh (or despair) at my tastes in anime so feel free to otherwise ignore it :)

There's probably a good chunk of people that do not know about the LNs. I embarrassingly enough didn't even know LNs were a thing until I started looking for what the anime was based on and I was expecting a manga.

@talisein, OK, so it's got THAT scene from what will presumably be the final episode of this season (
or maybe even next Monday's if the last ep heads into the side storiesEdit: looks like the final ep based on the preview pics below), but it doesn't have the one from ep 31 or therabouts where Myne leaps into her father's arms from halfway up a staircase - now that really shows trust in someone!(recites mantra: S4 please, S4 please, S4 please, S4 please, S4 please)

Episode 35 Preview Pictures

@LurkingMcLurk, so that's how they're going to do it, with yet another cliff-hanger at the end of an episode - been a few of those already this season.
And I know it's just a trivial thing compared to all the other stuff, but I love how they're still showing the difference between the rinsham users and the rest of the characters.

That is what I was thinking as well based on the last frame. But it makes since, if they stop the show this season instead of continuing, they will really want to think hard about that notion; they need to make it a good ending, thus they cannot rush the ending.

It seems obvious that they'd stop around that point. There's so much to cover between now and the end of the volume (not even counting side stories) that trying to push past would be a disaster. They need all the time they can get for the final bits.

I would say it's not the final ep of the season. I'd venture there's at least one more, because given how the episode preview pictures are in the order they appear in the episode, that scene isn't in this one (because there is no way they don't include that scene). Given how heavily a certain character who does not appear in the previews features in the finale of P2, there is no way that they wouldn't show that he is very definitely involved.
My grasp on sanity remains absolute.
Oh, right, the poison, the poison for Kuzco, the poison chosen especially to kill Kuzco, Kuzco's poison. ...That poison?

You are correct, it's not the final episode; there are two episodes left.
We've seen eight, and there are ten total. -
@TheGrimLich, my hasty edit wasn't clear enough. What I meant was that the some of the scenes from that PV video looked as though they were from the last episode (June 13), rather than the next episode (June 6).

@NekoInu, I was just about to say that it's in all the usual places like MAL and ANN, but when I checked I found that ANN was still listing 12 episodes. I still think it's more likely to be 10 because it started 2 weeks later than most of the other anime this season.

Information for the JP home release of s3 said that it will contain 10 episodes.

Just watched episode 35 and I must say I really like how they did mana scenes. They did not follow books down to details but that was expected due to time constraints. They adapted book really well. Can't wait for next week :)

I'm glad they mentioned the ordannanz Damuel tried to send, I always thought it was weird he didn't mention trying it in the LN.

I’m actually disappointed where this episode ended. I wish they’d gone just a tiny bit further.

Well, well, well. So this is where we end this week...

It happen exactly where I thought it would. But yea, it would have been nice for a longer episode.
